Excerpt from Blundell's Diary: Comprising Selections From the Diary of Nicholas Blundell, Esq., From 1702 to 1728

Such a record as the one before us comes like a revelation from the tomb. It brings to light events hitherto shrouded in oblivion. It repeoples the land with its old inhabitants and introduces us to their homes, their occupations, their amusements and social life. We follow them in their daily path until the final summons, when the squire's Coach carriage which was at the service of rich and poor alike, conveys them to their last resting-place.
